Catching up…..

Sunday, October 26th, 2008

We have gotten WAY behind on our blogging and photo updates, so we will be attempting to catch up over the next week or two. We have lots of pictures from the State Fair, Gaby’s birthday weekend, and some fun random shots as well. Hopefully we can put something here each day or two for awhile and keep the GK news current. Enjoy~

We’re going to start with a few from the State Fair.

Gaby’s first day of Preschool

Saturday, October 25th, 2008

Ok Ok, so I should not have posted without at least ONE pic of the GK..  here she is on her way to her first day of preschool last month.

Back on the horse

Saturday, October 25th, 2008

Ok, so it has been about a month since the thing.  It hasn’t been the best month of our lives, but we’ve learned a great deal and as hard as it has been, it is time to move forward.   We’ve got quite a bit queued up since we haven’t really been able to post because of the thing.  So look for posts in the next few days regarding Gaby Kate’s 2nd birthday, a trip to the fair, a new fence, and people who are too old to be drinking tequila shots (and yes, it will include pictures).

stay tuned…
